Now that spring practices have wrapped up, here's where the Seminoles must turn to next.
Florida State spent March and April gaining an early feel for its 2026 football roster.
From the looks of things, this team still has areas to fill out.
This is common following spring practices for most college football teams. Starting spots aren't officially decided during spring ball and coaches prefer to finalize the two-deep during August. Especially with late additions via transfer or freshmen coming in.
That said, FSU still has three areas to address moving ahead. Starting with the most important position.
Quarterback Not Settled Yet
Early projections cited Ashton Daniels leading the charge as QB1 in Tallahassee.
That's not exactly the case in regards to the Auburn and Stanford transfer.
Head coach Mike Norvell let it be known to reports during March that Daniels still had areas to work on.
"There are some foundational elements that he can pull upon, but now it's how we do it and the finer details—where we want eyes, the locations, the reads," Norvell said to reporters back on March 6. "As we're putting that together, there are things that really fit that we knew coming in would be a really good fit for his skill set."
Daniels still must hold off Kevin Sperry for the starting nod. And Sperry has worked with the first team talents as well. This battle is expected to stretch until August.
No. 2 WR Needed
Duce Robinson is getting the football regardless of who lines up behind center.
But who'll bail him out as the true No. 2 option remains to be seen.
Micahi Danzy showed his potential after grabbing 27 passes for 571 yards with three touchdowns. He even joined the team in the middle of spring ball after wrapping up track and field season.
But another two-sport star on campus could threaten the WR2 role: Jasen Lopez, a four-star signing who also shot hoops for FSU recently.
Regardless, someone must take pressure off of the most NFL-ready wideout on this roster.
Ballhawk Wanted
Not discussed enough is one more position that must be filled, plus needs a new leadership voice: Safety.
Earl Little Jr. bequeaths that spot after leaving via the College Football Transfer Portal.
Safety must be addressed, especially as the proverbial "quarterback of the defense" position. That also means FSU needs someone to step up as the new ballhawk here, with Little grabbing four interceptions last season.
